Northampton has a strong sporting heritage with a top flight Rugby team named the Saints, who play at Franklin's Gardens.

Additionally Northamptonshire County Cricket Club regularly play in the town in both championship and limited overs county matches.

For fans of extreme sports there is the nearby Nene Whitewater Centre, giving visitors the chance to kayak, canoe and raft in treacherous conditions.

Northampton has a rich history as a market town and with a wealth of attractions within the town and in the outlying countryside can be deemed a tourist destination in its own right.

A visit to Althorp, the ancestral home of the Spencer family is highly advisable for its magnificent stately rooms and a fabulous collection of ceramics, pictures and furniture.

With an exhibition celebrating the life of Diana, the Spencer's poignantly remember the life and work of the Princess of Wales.

As well as Althorp there is Cottesbrooke Hall, a house dating from the early eighteenth century that is believed by many to be the pattern for Jane Austen's 'Mansfield Park' , a must see for literary buffs.

These houses are set in the gorgeous Northamptonshire countryside and with the use of a hire car can be part of a tour of the quintessentially English towns and villages.
